Canadian fintech firm Mogo Inc. (NASDAQ: MOGO; TSX: MOGO) has bolstered its digital asset strategy by acquiring a 9% stake in Digital Commodities Capital Corp. (CSE: DIGI; OTCQB: DGCMF). The $1 million investment was made via a non-brokered private placement, with Mogo purchasing 13.3 million units at $0.075 each. Each unit comprises one common share and one warrant exercisable at $0.10.
Digital Commodities, a publicly listed investment issuer, focuses on building a hard asset treasury composed of Bitcoin and physical gold. The company’s strategy is rooted in sound money principles and aims to provide investors exposure to long-term, non-fiat reserves without speculative diversification or dilution from operating businesses.

Bitcoin and Gold: A Foundation for Public Market Discipline
Greg Feller, President and Co-founder of Mogo, described Digital Commodities as “a category-defining strategy” built on Bitcoin and gold. He emphasized the company’s alignment with sound monetary frameworks and highlighted the conviction of Digital Commodities’ leadership under CEO Brayden Sutton.
“We believe Digital Commodities is building something foundational—an asset-backed public company model built on Bitcoin and gold,” Feller said. “That’s a category-defining strategy we’re excited to be aligned with.”
Digital Commodities is positioning itself as a rare public market vehicle offering pure-play exposure to Bitcoin and gold reserves. By focusing exclusively on acquiring and holding these assets, it sidesteps volatility associated with operational risk and speculative ventures.
Mogo’s Broader Bitcoin Treasury Vision
This latest investment complements Mogo’s broader capital allocation strategy, which has been increasingly centered on Bitcoin. Earlier this month, the firm secured board authorization to allocate up to $50 million in Bitcoin, underscoring its long-term belief in hard assets as a hedge against monetary debasement.
Mogo already holds a minority stake in Gemini, the crypto exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins. The investment in Digital Commodities strengthens its portfolio of digital asset ventures and reflects a dual-pronged growth strategy: combining high-growth fintech operations with a disciplined, Bitcoin-backed reserve model.
Fintech’s Growing Embrace of Hard Money Principles
Mogo’s strategic move reflects a larger trend among fintech companies leaning into Bitcoin and other non-fiat assets for balance sheet strength. With inflationary concerns still looming, gold and Bitcoin are being repositioned not merely as speculative assets, but as pillars of modern treasury management.
Research by ARK Invest and Fidelity Digital Assets continues to show increasing institutional interest in Bitcoin as digital gold. Mogo’s capital alignment with Digital Commodities reinforces the belief that decentralized hard assets can play a meaningful role in the evolution of corporate finance.
